These are solid choices. Which is why Cap and Bucky choose each other.

Can’t agree with the first part of your comment, fam. The media wants to portray these young athletes as selfish millionaires, and when one says “I just want to do my job”, we say shut up, cuz you getting paid? That’s not quite right, IMO.

Well, let’s see: Which team is top 10 in FG%, 3P%, and points and which team is in the bottom third of the league in those categories? Which team is first in rebounds and second in assists and which team is in the bottom third of the league in those categories? Why, it just so happens that Philly is one of the best…

I’ve now watched the past eight games (forgot about the Dallas and Clippers games a couple weeks ago), looking specifically for what they’re doing wrong. It’s really three things: They don’t run any plays on offense, they switch constantly on defense and collapse in the lane allowing for open threes, and they take low…

This would be a much better point if none of them had played basketball for the majority of their lives.

I’ve seen the past four or five Thunder games. It’s incredible how good they are, particularly defensively, through the first quarter. I think in three of those games, they’ve been up 20 points. In every game, they’ve been up at least eight, I believe. The defense leads to transition offense, where they are equally…

Even Democrats are anti-union, so it makes sense we’re in such a shitshow. People always say, “vote for the lesser of two evils,” and then the lesser of two evils STILL fucks your shit ten ways from sunday.

I mean, in damn near everything else we recognize that there are degrees of awfulness. It’s not “justifying” manslaughter to recognize that it’s not the same as murder. It’s not “justifying” sexual harassment to recognize that it’s not the same as rape, or even sexual assault.

Maybe you missed the point. Jaylen was in high school a few years ago. He’s had to grow up and be more mature in a shorter amount of time than most people his age (I’m 24) to be where he’s at today.

Damn... That video really underscores the fact that at the end of the day, these guys are just kids. Jaylen just turned 21, only spent a year in college, and transferred high schools apparently at least once. Combined with constant hard work and travel, plus the very weird societal dynamic that comes with being an NBA…

I agree with everything that you said — except the last line.

oh, honey, be wary ...

I treat women the way I would like to be treated because they’re people with feelings and I am too.

That is one possibility... but the central conceit of your argument is that you can always reasonably presume intent. You can’t. So don’t.

In the clip above, Stewart is asked about how he reacted to the revelations and C.K.’s admittance of guilt, and says he was “stunned.”

Holy shit. That’s legitimately the most inspiring thing I’ve read today. Makes me click the “We’re Fucking Doomed” dial down a couple of notches.

My 12 year old nerdy kid had a sleepover with three other 12 year old boys. I heard a lot of what they said (because god DAMN are they loud) and some of it was really problematic. Yeah, it was my kid and yeah, there were consequences.

Yeah.

Eh, I don’t think that everyone needs a dedicated “shame step,” particularly if you can address that situation internally. Hell, I’d imagine that a good portion of 7th grade nerds talked about girls in gamergate-esque terms, but most of us grew out of that. It’s the folks who are developmentally arrested that could…
